One thing I have discovered about myself is that I am very intolerant of ignorance or of laziness. I found that I had to deal with both of these today. Another thing I hate is to meticulously plan for something, ( following the strictest of guidelines provided to me,)and then have someone say something like " but this isnt done". Or when they decide to add something else onto it at the last minute, OR to carelessly look at the work or "preparations" that I have made and say, (in error of course) that something is either not right, or missing. I hate to say it, but I am pretty anal about planning for things when it comes to my kids. When I ran across this problem today, I felt like I was the star of america's funniest pranks or something. I did not think I would be able to contain myself. Amazingly I kept my cool, and got the job done, but I am still ill over it.
I surprised the kids today by buying them something they least expected. Raven got a cheap MP3 player, since the one that Santa bought her has broken 6 times now. Brandon has been begging for King Kong every since it come out into theatres. I got it for him and it was like I had bought him a porche or something! I picked him up from daycare and he seen the movie and freaked! It was so funny! Of course we spent the last 3-4 hours watching it too!
